Stephen Byes

In 1985, i was pretty excited to move to St. Louis. My life was very good in KC. I was in love with a beautiful woman, my air shift was only three hours long. I got off in time to catch The Royals on most nights. There was only one radio station I would leave KC for an that was KSHE 95.

I will tell the story later, but suffice to say that my arrival in St. Louis was met with underwhelming response.

In fact, one of the DJs at KSHE‘s first words to me were “why the hell do we need somebody from Kansas City to come in when I have St. Louis friends that are out of work. You’d better be good.”
Thanks for the warm welcome.
I was bullied for quite some time.
One of the very first people to reach out to me in St. Louis and tell me that I was doing a great job was one Stephen Byes.

I got to see him today after a very long time. It was wonderful to give him a big bear hug.
Dude, the white looks good on you.
